CHAPTER 1
Introduction
1.1 Overview
This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the EMG3425-Q10A.
The EMG3425-Q10A extends the range of your existing wired network without additional wiring,
providing easy network access to mobile users. You can set up a wireless network with other IEEE
802.11a/ac/b/g/n compatible devices.
A range of services such as a firewall and content filtering are also available for secure Internet
computing. The EMG3425-Q10A also supports the new StreamBoost technology, which is smart
Quality of Service (QoS), to redistribute traffic over the EMG3425-Q10A for the best possible
performance in a home network.
There is one USB 2.0 port on the side panel of your EMG3425-Q10A, and the other one is on the
rear panel of your EMG3425-Q10A. You can connect USB (version 2.0 or lower) memory sticks, USB
hard drives, or USB devices for file sharing. The EMG3425-Q10A automatically detects the USB
devices.
Make sure the USB LED is off before removing your USB device. This will remove your USB device
safely, preventing file or data loss if it is being transmitted through the USB device.
Note: For the USB function, it is strongly recommended to use version 2.0 or lower USB
storage devices (such as memory sticks, USB hard drives) and/or USB devices.
Other USB products are not guaranteed to function properly with the EMG3425-
Q10A.
Chapter 1 Introduction
EMG3425-Q10A User’s Guide

1.1.1 Dual-Band
The EMG3425-Q10A is a dual-band AP and able to function both 2.4G and 5G networks at the same
time. You could use the 2.4 GHz band for regular Internet surfing and downloading while using the
5 GHz band for time sensitive traffic like high-definition video, music, and gaming.
Figure 1 Dual-Band Application
1.2 Applications
You can have the following networks with the EMG3425-Q10A:
• Wired. You can connect network devices via the Ethernet ports of the EMG3425-Q10A so that
they can communicate with each other and access the Internet.
• Wireless. Wireless clients can connect to the EMG3425-Q10A to access network resources. You
can use WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) to create an instant network connection with another WPS-
compatible device.
• WAN. Connect to a broadband modem/router for Internet access.
1.3 Ways to Manage the EMG3425-Q10A
Use any of the following methods to manage the EMG3425-Q10A.
• WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup). You can use the WPS button or the WPS section of the Web
Configurator to set up a wireless network with your EMG3425-Q10A.
• Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the EMG3425-Q10A using
a (supported) web browser.
Chapter 1 Introduction
EMG3425-Q10A User’s Guide

1.4 Good Habits for Managing the EMG3425-Q10A
Do the following things regularly to make the EMG3425-Q10A more secure and to manage the
EMG3425-Q10A more effectively.
• Change the password. Use a password that’s not easy to guess and that consists of different
types of characters, such as numbers and letters.
• Write down the password and put it in a safe place.
• Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier
working configuration may be useful if the device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you
forget your password, you will have to reset the EMG3425-Q10A to its factory default settings. If
you backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the
EMG3425-Q10A. You could simply restore your last configuration.
1.5 Resetting the EMG3425-Q10A
If you forget your password or IP address, or you cannot access the Web Configurator, you will need
to use the RESET button at the back of the EMG3425-Q10A to reload the factory-default
configuration file. This means that you will lose all configurations that you had previously saved, the
user name will be reset to “supervisor” or “admin”, the password will be reset to “supervisor” or
“1234”, and the IP address will be reset to “192.168.1.1” (router mode).
1.5.1 How to Use the RESET Button
1 Make sure the power LED is on.
2 Press the RESET button for one to four seconds to restart/reboot the EMG3425-Q10A.
3 Press the RESET button for longer than five seconds to set the EMG3425-Q10A back to its factory-
default configurations.
1.6 The WPS Button
Your EMG3425-Q10A supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), which is an easy way to set up a
secure wireless network. WPS is an industry standard specification, defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance.
WPS allows you to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without having to
configure security settings manually. Each WPS connection works between two devices. Both
devices must support WPS (check each device’s documentation to make sure).
Depending on the devices you have, you can either press a button (on the device itself, or in its
configuration utility) or enter a PIN (a unique Personal Identification Number that allows one device
to authenticate the other) on each of the two devices. When WPS is activated on a device, it has
two minutes to find another device that also has WPS activated. Then, the two devices connect and
set up a secure network by themselves.
Chapter 1 Introduction
EMG3425-Q10A User’s Guide
15
You can use the WPS button ( ) on the front panel of the EMG3425-Q10A to activate WPS in
order to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security.
1 Make sure the power LED is on (not blinking).
2 Press the WPS button for more than three seconds and release it. Press the WPS button on another
WPS-enabled device within range of the EMG3425-Q10A.
Note: You must activate WPS on the EMG3425-Q10A and on another wireless device
within two minutes of each other.
For more information on using WPS, see Section 6.2 on page 38.
1.7 LEDs
Look at the LED lights on the front panel to determine the status of the EMG3425-Q10A. Use the
LED button on the rear panel of the device to turn the LED lights on or off. If you have already
pushed the LED button to the ON position but none of the LEDS are on, make sure the EMG3425-
Q10A is receiving power and the power is turned on.
Note: The Power LED will be on even if you push the LED button to the OFF position.
This is for you to determine whether the EMG3425-Q10A is powered on.
